The 2023-24 NBA season continues with an eight-game slate taking place on Friday. Before setting your NBA DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel for Friday, March 8, you NEED to see what Jimmie Kaylor has to say. Tyrese Maxey (concussion) is out for the 76ers, Evan Mobley (ankle) is out for the Cavaliers, and LaMelo Ball (ankle) is out for the Hornets. 

Kaylor is a DFS and betting expert for SportsLine, who won a DraftKings Millionaire Maker contest in 2022. He uses a combination of his background as a former college and professional athlete and his keen eye for statistical trends when making his picks and locking in his DFS lineups. Kaylor enters the 2024 calendar year with multiple five-figure tournament cashes on his DFS resume.

Kaylor's approach allows him to find the best NBA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he only shares on SportsLine. They're a must-see for any NBA DFS player.

On Wednesday (when Kaylor last made picks), Kaylor highlighted Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox as one of his top picks in his NBA DFS player pool on both sites. The result: Fox had 44 points, four rebounds, four assists and two steals, returning 58.5 points on DraftKings and 57.8 points on FanDuel. Anybody who included him in their lineups was well on the way to a profitable day.

For Friday, one of Kaylor's top NBA DFS picks is Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. ($8,200 on DraftKings and $9,000 on FanDuel). Another part of McClure's optimal NBA DFS strategy includes Cavaliers power forward/center Jarrett Allen ($7,900 on DraftKings and $8,600 on FanDuel). Allen had 18 points and 19 rebounds in a 112-101 loss to the Hawks on Wednesday after posting 21 points and 12 rebounds in a 105-104 win over the Celtics on Tuesday. The 25-year-old is averaging 16.5 points and 13.3 rebounds over four games this month.

Kaylor is also targeting a player who could go off for MASSIVE numbers on Friday! This pick could be the difference between winning your tournaments and cash games or going home with nothing! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in any lineups.
